Who Am I?

Hello! My name is Michelle and this is my little slice of the internet. I am a blogger from Canada, who's trying to figure out what it means to be an adult. When I'm not sporadically blogging here, I enjoy crafting, playing with Blythe dolls, and drinking copious amounts of Chai tea. More?

While it is very nice that you email me to inform me that the item that I have requested is still not in stock, it is kind of unnecessary to email me more than once a day about the progress of how you still do not have it in stock. I realized this from the first email that you sent me at approximately 10am. The subsequent emails at around 1pm, 3pm and 4pm were not necessary. In fact, you could stop your system from sending out automated emails daily too, maybe once every other day would be more efficient.

Automated emails are mostly useless. I often get “Your item has shipped!” emails after I’ve already received and opened the package.

My personal favorite; I closed my account at TheKnot.com because they wouldn’t stop sending me lame emails about the lame crap they had for sale in their lame shop. I had to jump through a million hoops to get them to close my account… and they sent me an email expressing their regret that I’d CANCELED MY WEDDING.

Then, a few months later, on the arbitrary “wedding date” I’d selected because I didn’t have a real one picked out yet… they sent me an invite to TheNest.com, congratulating me on my wedding. Way to rub it in, guys.
